Your only all NBA guys can be from the 70’s/80’s


I like this one.
Comments to rationalize bad contracts -
1) It's less than the MLE
2) He can be traded later
3) It's only __% of the cap
4) The cap is going up
5) It's only __ years
6) He's a good mentor/locker room guy

Anyone who’s been traded after the season started, until the deadline, the last 5 (or 7, or 9?) seasons can be drafted only?


Pairs draft - the pair must have been involved in the same trade.

We did this one back in 2019 - lots of new pairs since then though.

I like this one.

A bit similar to the Old Stars game which was a little over a year ago. This one would be more restrictive though which could be interesting.

MadNESS wrote:5 worst franchises draft. The teams we all hate to use in these games….

Hawks, Wizards, Knicks, Nets, Kings, Clippers?

Am I missing someone?

I suggested something similar a few messages before with a more well-refined concept, a little bit more friendly but still challenging

OKC Sacramento Atlanta Knicks Hawks Wizards Philly Detroit

This pool is more difficult than usual, but I think there's enough top end talent
